Reynolds-Alberta Museum

Reviewed By RobCalgary_AB - Calgary, Canada

Being new to Alberta, I was recommended to visit this museum by someone that I met. I was very surprised by the world class level of the displays. Excellent museum; the displays and and quality of the autos and otherwise were outstanding. Very interesting, however the Airplane building was somewhat less interesting. I did a lot of reading there on the history of the air pioneers and the display aircraft were interesting, just less so from the main building. Definitely not a complaint, just a note. I am a senior and will make a comment there could be some more seating through the main building. It is a bit of a struggle when a person is not as fit and seating would help. To sum up, well worth going to and I think a visitor will be surprised at the interesting displays and rare exlhibits.

Pigeon Lake Provincial Park

Pigeon Lake Provincial Park is an excellent place for people of all ages. There's golf, sailing, boating. swimming, and cross country skiiing. The Just 15 minutes away, the Village at Pigeon Lake is a convenient spot to find groceries, restaurants, cafes, a pharmacy and a gas station.

Reviewed By BruceAtWork - Leduc, Canada

I briefly visited family who hand rented the Yurt. These people came all the way from Winnipeg and were having a great time. The only thing disappointing to them is that they were not made aware of any places to go around the area. They were completely in the dark about nearby amenities and family activities in The Village of Pigeon Lake and ended up missing a kids event. Whether or not this is a failure on behalf of the campground or the Village itself, I don't know. The lake was clean.
